Utah HB0025 amends candidate nomination petition rules, including signature submission and verification processes.

Utah HB0025 amends provisions related to candidate nomination petitions. It requires candidates seeking nomination by gathering signatures to submit these signatures to the county clerk of each registered voter's residence. The county clerk can only certify a registered voter's signature if the voter resides in the county and has not signed any other nomination petition for the same office. The bill also mandates that candidates for elective office must file a declaration of candidacy before gathering signatures.
